THE MASCOT OF THE TRAIN.

An engineer on the Wabash rail-
way, whose run is between Danville
and Springfield, has a cat which he
would not part with for love or mon
ey. 1t belonged to his wife, who il
now dead, and for a year past it has
been his constant companion in the
cab. The cat loves its life on the
rail, and has grown sleek and tat
shifting the prairie winds. Ordina-
rily it sits perched up in the cabin
window before its master, but occa-
sionally it strolIa out to the pilot,
where it will ride for hours at a
stretch, wink knowingly at the dogs
which bark at the train as it thun-
ders by the cross roads. Sometimes,
when the train is approaching a sta
ton, the adventurous cat climbs to
the top of the sand-box and calmly
roosts there, undeterred by the shrek
Of the whistle or the clang OF the
bell. The engine has had good luck
ever since the animal became an oc-
cupant OF the cab, and the trainmen
look upon il as mascot againt disas-
ter.

Frank Leslie,s sunday Magazine for Jurv.

Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine for July,
Begins the twenty-second volume,
and now IS good time for new sub
scriptions TO begin. This number
contains two important historical ar
ticles, which are especially timely in
view Of the possible European COM
plications. These are, ''Francis
Joseph |. and the Austria Hungry
Empire by George Makepeaee
TOwie, and when Greek meets
Turk, by Oscanyan. Read together
they afford clear view of Central
and Southeastern European politics.
Lighter articles deal with '"Ihe Mis-
ericordia, that wonderful bencvo-
lent organization Of Florence "Mem-
DRY and its Cultivation" by Walter
Edgar Mccain; The Ivory Cary
mgs Of the Flemish Sculptor Duques-.
noy' Robinson Crusoe's Island"
and other subjects. The two serial
stories BY Miss Linskill and Miss
Mathews are continued, and there is
a tender short story, "A Woman's
Jealousy, by the late Phillip Bourke
Marston. Dir. Talmage's sermon is
on ''Stinging Annoyances," and in
the editorial department he discusses
More Holidays, Danenhower, PERM
cious Literature, The Blessings Of
Free Rum, and The Ragamufins.
Several beautiful poems, and many
fine illustrations add to the interest
and charm of the midsummer num-
Der Of the favorite Sunday Magazine.

4 PLAGUE OF sxArLs.

=; harrisburg Special to New York Sun
The entire lower portion Of Center
county, Pa, is at present plagued by
most extraordinary visitation of
snails or garden slugs. They come
from the hiding places in crevices
under board walks, stones, etc, only
at night, and they cover the roads
and walks by the million. In PENIS
valley and Bloomfield and the sur
rounding country they have eaten
every growing thing in their path.
Some gardens have been entirely de-
stroyed. A letter from Penn's val.
ley says that mornings after warm
nights walks and roads are literally
covered with the slum these insects
leave IN their trails and by bushels
OF dead snails that have been crushed
by pedestrians and wagons. Lime,
Paris green, salt and other insect de-
stroyers have been scattered literally
where the snails travel and feed, but
they have no effect on them. The
singular part of this plague is that
no insects Of the kind were ever
known to be in the country before.
Where they came from, or what IN
fiuenees have brought them there
so suddenly and in such immense
numbers, is mystery no one has
been able TO solve.

gether. Still his orders increased
and-he hired another and still an
other man. To-day he has thirty
men in his employment, and he does
no physical labor himself. Making
money! Yes, right along, but it
was very little thing that gave him
his start.
Now, the point / wish to make
Is this: Capital, in large amounts,
is not necessary in the founding of
industrial enterprises. A good deal
OF pluck and energy, and unconquer-
able perseverance are better than
money, because, having these, mon
ely becomes the result, not the means
of success. Money is valuable not
as the means by which an end may
be accomplished, but rather because
it is the result of an accomplished
end. 1t has power, immense power,
but without energy behind it is pow
erleSs. Perseverance and energy can
make money, but money cannot make
perseverance and energy. What |
would like to see in our Sunny South
is more small industrial establish
ments. | would rather see dozen
shops employing three men each,
than one shop employing three dozen
men. There is more money in three
because there is greater possibility
for their expansion and growth.
Don't wait for the establishment of
big enterprises with heavy capital,
but start little ones in modest way,
and then let them grow, as the ma.
jority Of them surely will.

TOO MUCH MONEY.

The count Of cash in the United
States treasury, which is now in pro-
gress, has developed the fact that the
vault capacity is entirely inadequate
for the safe handling of the silver.
The silver vault was filled to its ut
most capacity some time ago and
there still remained about eight mil
lion standard dollars, which for want
Of better place were piled in bags in
the passageway leading to the vault
In taking the count these bags had
10 be removed to an outside hall,
where they now remain, protected
from outside interference by nothing
but pine-board partition. 1t there
fore has to be guarded at all times
by watehmen employed in the build
ing, who are armed with revolyers
during the day and with repeating
rifles during the night. Every pre-
caution has been taken TO prevent
its being tempered with, while in its
exposed condition. The count will
last five weeks more and the silver
cannot be returned to the vault room
until that Is concluded. In the
meantime work is being pushed on
the new silver vault authorized by
last Congress. 1t will have storage
capacity fol- hundred million stan
dard dollars, and will probably be
ready for use in September.

Ex-Congressman J. Floyd King, of
Louisiana, gives the public glimpse
of some of the troubles Of states-
man. He says that for one year his
bill for postage alone was 500, and
his clerk hire amounted 10 more
than his salary as Congressman.
His correspondence was immense.
He once spent Sunday and Monday
endeavoring to open and answer the
letters received ON Saturday. No
doubt the ex-Congressman tells the
truth, but no man that wants to go
to Congress will believe him or be
deferred from carrying out his pur
pose, if it is possible to do so.

Two ladies and two gentlemen, of
Aurora, Mo, met in parlor the
other evening and determined out of
sport to hold a mock Spiritualistic
seance. While they were quietly
sitting around a table telling ghost
stories the table was seized by some
unseen power and carried quickly up
to the ceiling, from which it was
hurled to the floor with great yio-
lence. In its fall the table struck
one of the young men on the head,
rendering him unconscious. Physi-
clans were called in and the uufortu-
nate man conveyed to his home, but
he is still unconscious and is not ex-
pected to recover.

the alleged fact that after a white
handkerchief, which had been folded
four thick and laid over the face of a
